The hotel complex is an important factor of Croatia’s existing tourism offer and in a way determines the fate of tourism in general. The restructure of existing hotel management during the period of transition means, among other things, an improved tourism offer (e.g. family hotels and other alternative types of hotels). The author advocates an approach by which the identity of Croatia’s hotel and tourism offer is preserved through the further development of hotel and tourism firms based on to-date achieved experience, to be improved by novel features, and a new "trade mark”, similar to the experiences of Spain, Austria and Italy. An introduction of alternative hotel forms is based on the management and structure of family hotels and lodging-houses in Austria, Italy, France and Portugal. Based on an analysis of existing states and a comparison of representative cases, a model is presented for the hotel industry under the new conditions of present day Croatia. A systematic introduction of new types of hotels as an additional offer of high quality tourism is also proposed. The indispensible role of outside institutions and bodies in the functioning and further development of the tourism offer is emphasised.

Key Aspects

The article deals with the challenges which Russian hotel-industry-specific higher education faces and which significantly undermine the education’s competitiveness in the educational service market in Europe and worldwide. The author identifies the key aspects of personnel training that the author sees as requiring a competition-driven revision. The research undertaken by the author has allowed him to formulate the possible solutions to the problem of low hotel resource potential. The implementation of the solutions is based on the creation of a competitive hotel-management-specific HE institution in Russia The author pays particular attention to such problems as insufficient emphasis on application, which become apparent given the employers’ readiness to provide traineeship programs for HE students; inadequate linguistic skills the students acquire in industry-specific HE institutions, which frustrates the purposes of training that is focused on communication with foreign guests; and, finally, the status value of the students of Russian HE institutions. In the author’s opinion, the problems can be solved through a creation of a new competitive HE institution which will provide high-quality linguistic training, will put emphasis on application, and will collaborate with top regional employers in terms of traineeship programs and recruitment on graduation. The whole educational process in such an institution is to be provided in English, be employer-hotel-based, and guarantee employment in the employer-hotels through a system of graduate-placement or a system of industry-commission. At the transition stage, the solutions can be implemented in the context of an existing industry-specific HE institution.

Hospitality is the most sensitive business in the world. Any small change in the country has an immediate impact on this industry. However, it should also be noted that this area also has the ability to recover quickly (coming out of various crises). The world practice of successful hotel operation has shown that the presence of benchmarking companies in developed countries has brought good results to various enterprises. Since the hotel industry in Georgia is not yet developed to a level that meets international standards, it would be a good idea to create the regional hotel associations, to invite experts who provide benchmarking with their consulting activities and services. This means that the high-ranking experts will be invited to select the most important indicators for the analysis. Creating a service standard framework will help the hotel industry to improve the quality of a service. Why is the knowledge of benchmarking tools important for hotels? Using benchmarking tools helps: 1. Investors to determine a range of investment in the construction of a hotel based on the tariffs and occupancy in the market. What will the hotel room cost based on the investment and how long will it take to get the investment back? 2. Revenue management increase revenue; the best example of this is the benchmarking operations provided by the hotel chain Ritz Carton. 3. Hotels to have more satisfied customers. This means if the hotel rating is higher than that of other hotels, more customers are attracted. 4. To increase the qualification of hotel staff and to increase their motivation. This will improve the quality of the work done by them. 5. To save money on experiments; By using the best experience and offering your own option, the hotel will raise its awareness and increase its popularity.

The essence of the principle of network organization is that multi-level hierarchy is replaced by groups of enterprises, and specialized units coordinated by market mechanisms replace administrative mechanisms. Franchising, one of the forms of hotel management, is a contractual relationship between companies with a well-known brand and other hotels. As well as the positive role of franchising management in the hotel chain, there are also a number of problems. Key words: hotel, Franchising, hospitality, industry, service, tourist

This article introduces Cognitive Health Counseling 40+ (CH.CO40+), an individualized intervention that is conceptually based on the orchestration model of quality-of-life management ( Martin & Kliegel, 2010 ) and aims at improving satisfaction with cognitive health in adults aged 40 years and older. We describe the theoretically deduced characteristics of CH.CO40+, its target group, its multifactorial nature, its individualization, the application of subjective and objective measures, the role of participants as agents of change, and the rationale for choosing participants’ satisfaction with their cognitive health as main outcome variable. A pilot phase with 15 middle-aged and six older adults suggests that CH.CO40+ attracts, and may be particularly suitable for, subjective memory complainers. Implications of the pilot data for the further development of the intervention are discussed.

Staff Members

Staff members at a movie company Daiei, known for presumably the world’s best film technology, continued to produce movies for several months even after the company went bankrupt. It was because they desired to make outstanding films. A director can create a high-quality film by combining the skills and ideas of such staff. Akira Kurosawa named the group that could produce excellent works the “Community of Talents”. By using research on a community as a clue, this paper aims to highlight how the “Community of Talents” is organized. First I point out that a “Community of Talents” is formulated primarily by the labor of the staff based on Kumazawa’s “Community on the Shop Floor”. The paper subsequently refers to research by Heinrich Nicklish, a representative researcher on the study of community in Germany, in an attempt to verify that the community is a group of people established on functions. Lastly, the paper explores Guido Fisher’s research to reveal the role of democratic leadership centered on the director who transforms the objectified staff in the organization into an independently-minded presence and help them prove their abilities. The paper continues to emphasize the significance of leadership in the formation of the “Community of Talents”.

Subject. The article addresses problems and prospects for the banking supervision development in the Russian Federation under modern conditions. Objectives. We review the essence and methods of organization of the banking supervision, and identify the main problems and prospects for its development. Methods. To provide valid, reliable and reasoned recommendations, we apply normative and integrated approaches to the study of the banking supervision effectiveness in the current circumstances. Results. The paper investigates main problems and development prospects for the Russian banking supervision. The essential importance of supervision comes from the main role of the banking system in maintaining accounts of economic entities and making settlements. Even minor failures or delays in operations can lead to negative outcomes and disastrous consequences for the entire monetary system and the national economy. Therefore, we highlight issues that require attention, and make proposals for further development of the banking supervision. Conclusions. In the context of dynamically developing economy, the banking practice is becoming more complex. As a result, there is a need for new financial instruments that can reduce risks, increase the speed and efficiency of operations and document flow, and help achieve the world levels of introduced standards.

The Impact

This study aims to investigate the impact of parental career behaviors on undergraduate student’s career exploration and the mediating role of career self-efficacy. In the literature it is suggested that some social and individual factors facilitate students’ career exploration. Therefore, parental career behaviors and career self-efficacy is considered as predictors of student’s career exploration attitudes within the scope of the study. In this respect, data which are collected from 405 undergraduate students having an education on tourism and hotel management field by the survey method are analyzed by using the structural equation modeling. The results of the study indicate that parental career behaviors which are addressed support; interference and lack of engagement have a significant effect on student’s career exploration behaviors such as intended-systematic exploration, environment exploration and self-exploration. In addition, it has been found that one of the dimensions of parental career behaviors addressed as a lack of engagement has a significant effect on career self-efficacy levels of students. However, research results indicate that student’s career self-efficacy has a significant effect on only the self-exploration dimension. On the other hand, career self-efficacy has a partial mediating role between lack of engagement attitudes of parents and career exploration behaviors of students.
